Broth is excellence, but the meat is a little chewy.

I was skeptical about coming here as I've heard portions here are small compared to other places in the valley. Happy to say I had a good experience here for take out.

The building inside is very tight. Not lots of room between tables, there's even a table just a few feet in front of the door right next to their waitlist tablet. I placed my order with a server and he said it would take about 15 mins, which is fine with me. I came in after 15 mins to pick up and noticed tables who ordered after I placed my take out were being served- meaning the cooks move impressively quick. My takeout was also ready. The ordering and pickup process was quick and easy.

I ordered their beef brisket noodle without cilantro. I ordered the soup with their flat wide noodles, and paid for extra to try their regular hand pulled noodles.

Whoever said the portions were small are either crazy or REALLY REALLY hungry people, because the portions I received were huge! I did get two noodle orders, but only one soup, so I got only one portion of broth, meat, and vegetables, and it was surely enough to split between the two bowls of noodles! The broth has a nice deep flavor. The noodles were as fresh as can be, and I truly loved their hand pulled noodles. Other places I have had hand pulled noodles, they are dense and unpleasant to eat. The noodles here are light and don't feel so heavy to eat, and are still very filling.

Overall I absolutely love the soup here! It was a great lunch even on a hot summer day!

Located off Fort Apache and Reno Ave within the mostly food strip mall.
It has been a while since I have been here…

This is what I ordered:
1.) Onion Pancakes with Braised Pork Belly $8.25 the pancakes were prepared great and the Pork Belly was tender and tasty.
2.) Spicy Pork Rib Noodles $16.50 the noodles were cooked well, but the Pork ribs were dry and a bit chewy. I normally like this dish, but not so much this time!
3.) Wonton soup $12.50 this has always been good.

I love the hand cut slim noodles with pork ribs never disappoints and the noodles and Brisket.

Joined the waitlist as soon as we arrived, and waited outside, then the staff proceeded to seat couples who arrived after us who were not on the waitlist. When we asked why, they said we were not on the waitlist and therefore it was first come first serve. I pulled up the waitlist on their own tablet out front with my name clearly on there, then they started lying saying they did not see us on the waitlist. Horrible service, we left without dining.

It changed, the first few times were really good, the broth is very bland this time, chalky and flavorless, the noodles got no taste, I couldn’t enjoy any of the noodles like before, I always finish all the noodles. Photos are now and 2 month ago comparison.

Update: the flavor is better now, although I would really like to see The Magic Noodles opens up Yelp waitlist like other popular noodles shop, the loooooong waiting has always been the no.1 reason why we don’t go there often.

Update 2: I quit going there. It is NOT the same anymore, the flavor is so Americanized, the broth is wrong, nobody is watching the flavor quality anymore. I’m so sad I lost my favorite restaurant. Goodbye.

This is legit northern Chinese style noodle spot. Looks like Vegas is finally getting the much needed street cred on Asian food!

I had the beef brisket noodle soup and it was very very good! I chose the knife cut noodles. There are 3 choices, thin, knife cut or wide.

The house special Fried Rice is also quite excellent. Only critic on fried rice is the serving size is not large.

Did I mention they show the noodle making right in their kitchen. It is quite interesting.

Wanted to love this place with such high ratings but unfortunately the noodles were undercooked and the broth was bland. The restaurant is small and a bit loud. We would not go back. We have had much better noodles at other restaurants in Las Vegas.

Consistently delicious and an inexpensive eat at that! The fresh noodles are always chewy and cooked to a decent consistency. Service is fast and the flavors are traditionally blended.

This place used to be so much better—especially a couple of years ago. Back then, the long lines of older Asian families waiting outside were a clear sign of how good it was. Sadly, those days seem to be behind us.

On my recent visit, the soup arrived lukewarm, the once-rich and layered flavors felt flat, and the overall quality has noticeably declined.

I used to recommend Magic Noodle to friends visiting from out of town, but I can’t say the same anymore. Really hoping it finds its way back to what made it special.
